Problem Description:

I am trying to validate OTP via 2Factor API but don’t know how to parse response data in java code.
tested on Postman `

URL url = new URL("https://2factor.in/API/V1/{api_key}/SMS/VERIFY/{session_id}/{otp_entered_by_user}");
        HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
        connection.setRequestMethod("GET");
        connection.connect();

tested the above API in postman and getting response like this,

{
    "Status": "Success",
    "Details": "OTP Matched"
}

You can get a reference to the input stream from the connection and read the contents. See the link below for an example where it explains both GET and POST requests
